I am not exactly happy with KDE4...

Don't expect to be happy until KDE 4.1!!

As for me I just installed Fedora 8, and tbh I was pleasantly surprised. I never liked rpm's but that changed, they are OK. I had a little nags though, nothing unsolved:

1-Fedora didn't detect my Gentoo partition. Nothing "nano /boot/grub/menu.lst" can't solve
2-It detects my external drives, but I need to double click them to mount. I am meaning to make them automount. Guess i'll hit the fstab documentation soon
3-Desktop effects (compiz) didn't work out of the box...I had "yum" an nvidia package.
4-for some reason while I was screwing around, the permissions of a file called audit.rules were changed, don't know how, and I couldn't log in as root...I had to reboot and go into runlevel 1 and run a "rpm --setperms -a" to make it work

Here are some screenshots:

Finally got enough time to play around with Ubuntu 7.10 - Had a hard time getting my grafic card to work & so I digged up my old computer so far I like what I see.

Looking good :cool2:

Thank you This coming week I hope to test all the applications I use & visit all important websites just to do some compatibility test. Then I can finally switch my main computer - BTW I am going to RMA my grafic card since it seems to be faulty. Then I can fully appreciate 7.10 with some real speed. Am not to big on the cube desktop stuff but I don't mind transparency et al.

I think it's Trez's unique goal celebration face. It's always the same and maybe you spent eons chatting with Vlatko

Wouldn't know why.

The wallpaper is 1.9mb so I can't upload it but here is the link http://interfacelift.com/wallpaper/index.php?sort=date

I just installed screenlets & it worked first time - but they have disappeared & are really messy to set straight. This is mainly because my graphic card cannot support compizfusion. Am in the process of RMA'ing the card for my main comp. Can't wait to test compizfusion on my main comp.
Right now I've just installed gdesklets.

Methinks that computer's a waste of time and (a little) space.

The official release is coming in 8.04. But you can use developer channels to get those packages now:
